Hi, Being that i'm kind of new to GeoServer, i'm looking for some ideas for how best to implement the ability to basically send a query through WMS to PostGIS but still have it processed as if it was a defined layer?
My scenario is that i have to be able to query any individual (or group or) geometry-row(s) from a PostGIS table that contains millions of rows and build a GeoTiff. It seems filtering a layer in GeoServer for such a large amount of data isn't possible and given the huge (and growing) number of rows, defining static layers in GeoServer is also infeasible? I think, ideally, i'd like to be able to write a virtual OWS that is dynamic, which just ships the URL's path and query string to my fully custom service. Something like: http://localhost:8080/geoserver/[let/me/put/anything/here]/wms?request=GetMap BUT, since all i really need is a GeoTiff of any row(s) of the table, an alternate approach might be if i can create a custom data store that is similar to the GeoTiff store yet mine will be dynamic based on the filename in the URL path. If you can just point me to an example of the code i can use as a starting point, i can probably take it from there. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks --nix GeoServer 2.2.4 Linux
